### Azure Monitor billing meter names

Below is a list of Azure Monitor billing meters names that you'll see in the Azure Cost Management + Billing user experience and in your usage exports.

Here is a list of the meters used to bill for log data ingestion, and whether the meter is regional (there is a different billing meter, `MeterId` in the export usage report, for each region). Note that Basic Logs ingestion can be used when the workspace's pricing tier is Pay-as-you-go or any commitment tier.

The "Standard Data Included per Node" meter is used both for the Log Analytics [Per Node tier](logs/cost-logs.md#per-node-pricing-tier) data allowance, and also the [Defender for Servers data allowance](logs/cost-logs.md#workspaces-with-microsoft-defender-for-cloud), for workspaces in any pricing tier.

Most Application Insights usage for both classic and workspace-based resources is reported on meters with **Log Analytics** for **Meter Category** because there's a single log back-end for all Azure Monitor components. Only Application Insights resources on legacy pricing tiers and multiple-step web tests are reported with **Application Insights** for **Meter Category**. The usage is shown in the **Consumed Quantity** column. The unit for each entry is shown in the **Unit of Measure** column.
